Bangor starter Lexi Cunningham worked around a two-out error in the bottom of the second to prevent the Red Eddies from answering back, then was part of a Ram hit parade to start the top of the third. Lindy Bezgembluk led off with a single, then Morgan-Carter Moulton followed with another. Grace Perron and Cunningham both hit RBI singles straight up the middle, then Rowan Andrews drove in the third run of the inning with a fifth single two batters later.

“The kids were seeing the ball well,” Bangor coach Don Stanhope said. “We’ve had some games where we hit that hard, but everything was up. And today we started hitting things on a line drive, and moving the ball through the infield.”

“The difference between the two teams today is they hit balls on a line, and hit line drives in the gap, and we just flew the ball out,” Derosby said.
